HMS Pontus (sinkable)

Sometimes a submarine sinks when you don't want it to. When that happens, ships like the Pontus prove invaluable. Equipped with 600m of cable and a combination diving bell-lifting rig, she can haul almost anything from the oceans deep! Just be careful around those stored torpedoes..

17 knot top speed
Roughly 800km range at top speed (range decreases at lower speeds)
Length – 56.5m
Width – 18.75m at paddleboxes
Depth – 3.75m
2 QF 3 Pounder Hotchkiss guns for self defense


Features
Detailed interior in both hulls
Functional diving bell
Simulated steam dynamo - boilers need to be lit before lights work
Equipment scattered around ship
2 electric life boats
Scripted sink mode

To start
Each hull contains a boiler that needs to be started
Either use ladder directly into boiler rooms or cross over from cargo holds
Simply press the button on each firebox
Helm is located on top of lifting rig
Recommend waiting for pressure to build in each boiler before trying to move


To sink
In the wheelhouse on the marconi table is a keypad
Simply enter the code '505'
Wait for the fireworks :)


Notes
She's best used for lifting in calm seas, heavy waves will move you off course
Warranty void if torpedoes stored poorly
